Slacker has dropped the price on its 4GB portable player.
For a limited time, the streaming Internet music service is offering the Slacker G2 for $129.99, down from $199.99, and will throw in a free docking station that normally retails for $30. It is available now on the Slacker Web site.
The G2, which debuted in late 2008, essentially takes Slacker’s music streaming capability on-the-go, and delivers customized music directly to the player. The version that’s on sale can hold up to 25 different stations, 2,500 songs, has a total storage of 4GB, and 1GB of personal storage.
The dock, meanwhile, connects to a home stereo or computer speakers, charges the player while listening or refreshes stations over Wi-Fi, and can connect to the PC to refresh music or transfer songs.Get the rest of this story on pcmag.com.
